Dances are graded into easy (e.g. Kenyan hop, Twist), medium (e.g. Hilly Billy, Mambo), and harder (e.g. Salsa, Cha cha). Each dance comes with a step-by-step set of instructions, backed up with a DVD showing Cush Jumbo going through the steps. Warm up and cool down ideas are also included. The introduction explains the importance of getting children dancing to improve their fitness and develop their listening and thinking skills.
